Hi guys. Thought I’d post my latest project done by misiekped
Base watch is the JF 16610 w/o rehaut engraving. Added the following:
Gen movement part with service
Gen hands
Gen crystal with AR
Gen bezel insert
Gen datewheel
Gen Crown
Yuki clasp

All in for about $2000

Thinking about sending to neckyzips for lug holes drilling and custom engraving but still on the fence. Not sure how the JF bracelet will line up with proper height lug holes

Very nice! How do you find the Yuki clasp compared to JF?
Yuki clasp has a better feel and the safety clasp seems more secure. It’s a minor difference but I had a yuki clasp in the parts drawer

How did you get all that and gen movement for 2k? That’s a hell of a deal! Nice work.

Beautiful build !

Not gen movement. It’s the a3135 with gen parts added to the movement during the service. -/+ 0.0 sec per day!

Great looking build! Neckyzips does good work and has a quick turnaround - it's hard to give up a sweet build for more work - once it's on the wrist hard to take it off!!! :p

Anyone know if the JF bracelet Springbar alignment is gen spec? If I get the lug holes drilled, I’ll need to use the JF bracelet as I don’t want to drop $1000 on a gen bracelet. Unless someone knows an alternative...

Very nice watch, congratulations! Do you think the gen crystal and the hands are a big improvement?
